# Hydrilla (Python implementation)

This is the repository of Python incarnation of [Hydrilla](https://hydrillabugs.koszko.org/projects/hydrilla/wiki/Wiki), a repository software to serve [Haketilo](https://hydrillabugs.koszko.org/projects/haketilo/wiki) packages.

## Dependencies

* flask
* pytest (for running tests)

Additionally, Hydrilla requires Python 3.

## Building

We're supplying debian packaging. To generate the necessary `debian.tar.gz` and `orig.tar.gz` files, run:
``` shell
python3 setup.py tarballs
```

This will generate appropriate `debian.tar.gz` and `orig.tar.gz` in the parent of the project directory.

*TODO: describe debian procedure...*

We're using setuptools. This means you can also do something like:
``` shell
python3 setup.py install
```

*TODO: describe setuptools considerations and mention avoiding pip...*

## Running
Hydrilla can be run from source, without prior installation, provided that its dependencies are present on the system. For this to work, you should first generate GNU Gettext `.mo` files. This is most easily achieved using our custom `setup.py` command:
``` shell
python3 setup.py msgfmt
```

A simple session can then be started with:
``` shell
python3 setup.py run
```

*TODO...*

## Copying

Hydrilla is entirely available under the GNU Affero General Public License version 3 or later. Some files might also give you broader permissions, see comments inside them.

*I, Wojtek Kosior, thereby promise not to sue for violation of this project's license. Although I request that you do not make use this code in a proprietary program, I am not going to enforce this in court.*
